Overview
Creating product images for ecommerce traditionally requires studio photography, controlled lighting, and manual editing.
With ALL3D, you can generate studio product images directly from a product photo, with full control over background, composition, and output.
This workflow is ideal for:
- Product detail pages (PDPs)
- Catalog and marketplace listings
- Consistent product imagery across your site

What Are Studio vs Silo Product Images?
- Studio product images are clean, controlled product shots with minimal styling—such as plain backgrounds, soft shadows, or subtle gradients.
- Silo images are a subset of studio images where the product is fully isolated on a clean background (often white), commonly used for marketplace listings.
👉 In practice:
All silo images are studio images, but not all studio images are silo images.


Step 1: Upload Your Product Image
Start by uploading your product:
- Add your product image
- Input dimensions (height, width, depth)
Use the highest-quality image available for best results.
Step 2: Select Studio Mode
Switch from:
- Lifestyle Mode → full environments
to - Studio Mode → clean, product-focused imagery
Studio mode is used to create:
- PDP product images
- Marketplace-ready visuals
- Consistent catalog imagery
Step 3: Add an Inspiration Image
Upload an inspiration image to define the scene.
Examples:
- Marble countertop
- Plain background
- Soft gradient backdrop
The inspiration controls:
- Surface
- Lighting
- Composition
💡 Using visual references ensures more precise and consistent outputs than relying on prompts alone.
Step 4: Add a Prompt (Optional)
You can include a short prompt to guide placement.
Example:
“Place the product on the exact countertop in the image.”
Prompts are optional—Studio mode is designed to work primarily from visual input.


Step 5: Generate Product Images
Select how many images to generate and click Generate.
Outputs are created in about:
- ~1 minute
You’ll receive:
- Clean, consistent studio product images
- Minimal variation compared to lifestyle scenes
Step 6: Review and Compare Outputs
Review each image for:
- Product accuracy (color, shape, material)
- Background consistency
- Lighting alignment
Use comparison tools to validate the output against your original product image.
